USX full-length, Eat the Low Dogs, features nine carefully engineered tracks designed to thicken the surrounding air blasting out of countless headphones and speakers worldwide. A multitude of effects intensifies the experience leaving one wondering what kind of sick yet talented musical minds are capable of creating such controlled chaos. Eat The Low Dogs is an amalgam of fury and grit, with a heavy dose of Appalachian angst for good measure, and should be enjoyed at the loudest volume possible for maximum intensity.
The official release date for Eat the Low Dogs will be November 24th. I'm Better Than Everyone Records is ecstatic to have been given the opportunity to give this record a long awaited vinyl release. This will be our first double album as well! The run on these will be 500, with 400 being on thick black vinyl. There will be an extremely limited run of 100 copies that will be on blue and dark red vinyl, with each record having a different color layout.
